Revised Manuscript Received July 5, 1994* abstract: Excitation-Ca2+ release coupling properties in the heavy microsomal fraction of the rabbit skeletal muscle enriched in triads were investigated by following the same type of approach used for the studies of excitation-contractioncoupling in the skinned fiber system. Incubation of the triads with Mg* ATP in a solution containing 150 mM K+, 15.0-37.2 mM Na+, 150-180 mM gluconate-, and 150-200 pM Ca2+(priming solution) led to (a) the generation of a T-tubule membrane potential making the cytoplasmic side negative, as assessed by potential-dependent uptake of the potential probe [14C] SCN-by triads, and (b) active transport of Ca2+ into the SR moiety. One volume of the primed (viz., polarized and Ca2+-loaded) triads was mixed with nine volumes of depolarizationsolution according to Cl--replacement [Donaldson, S. K. B.(1985) J. Gen. Physiol 86, 501-525; Stephenson, E. W.(1985) J. Gen. Physiol. 86, 813-832] and Na+-replacement [Lamb, GD, & Stephenson, DG (1990) J. Physiol. 423, 495-517] protocols used for the induction of contraction in skinned fiber system. The ionic replacement procedure by either protocol produced a rapid release of Ca2+ from SR as determined by stopped-flow fluorometry using fluo-3 as a Ca2+ probe in the presence of BAPTA-calcium buffer. Both the rate constant and the magnitude of Ca2+ release increased with the degree of ionic replacement. The ionic replacement-dependentchanges in the release kinetics showed a striking similarity to the voltage-dependent changes of the Ca2+ transient in the intact fiber system. Blocking of T-tubule polarization by several agents, such as the Na+-K+ pump blocker (80 pM digoxin) and the Na+-K+ gradient breaker (10/uM monensin together with 10/uM valinomycin), resulted in significant inhibition of ionicreplacement-induced SR Ca2+ release, showing no effect on SR Ca2+ release induced by direct stimulation of the SR channel by polylysine. This indicates that ionic replacement-induced Ca2+ release is under the control of T-tubule potential. The above results suggest that essential features of ec coupling in the skinned (or intact) muscle fiber system are retained in the isolated triad, and the triad preparation can serve as a simplified physiological model useful for the studies of the molecular mechanism of ec coupling.The mechanism by which transient changes in the T-tubule1 membrane potential lead to rapid Ca2+ release from the SR is one of the most important unsolved questions in muscle physiology (Endo, 1977; Martonosi, 1984; Cailleet al., 1985; Schneider, 1981; Fabiato, 1989; Fleischer & Inui, 1989; Rios & Pizzaro, 1991; Rios & Gonzalez, 1991). Recent studies have resolved two major molecular components involved in the coupling processes. The a i subunit of the dihydropyridine (DHP) receptor of the T-tubule plays a critical role, as evidenced by the following facts: this subunit is missing in the dysgenic mouse incapable of ec coupling (Knudson et al., 1989), while its expression regenerates ec coupling and charge movement (Tanabe etal., 1988a, b, 1990; Adams et al., 1990), and DHPs block ec coupling and charge movement (Rios & Brum, 1987).
